Cosmic croissant continues to sell in Tempe

As part of the celebration for the total solar eclipse on Monday, August 21, 2017, Squarz Bakery & Café in Tempe, Arizona created a special product for the special day.

The bakery introduced its Cosmic Croissant, and the item was an instant success. So much so, that it has continued to sell well past the date of the solar eclipse.

The colorful pastry consists of a flaky, chewy croissant filled with colorful bursts of sugar. On the outside, it features caramelized sugar and a thin ribbon of chocolate.

Squarz Bakery & Café is well known in the state of Arizona for its croissants, offering such delicious delights as its kouign amann (caramelized croissant), chocolate croissant, cinnamon roll croissant, and lemon croissant.

The products have been so successful that they have gained Squarz national attention. Earlier this year, Yelp and Buzzfeed determined that it was the best in the state of Arizona, according to an algorithm based on Yelp reviews.
